Oh ok. BTW, besides the batch and the brand, what do you have on your car belongs or shares with the GT-R?

I use the same wax on my rims as I do on my car's paint. It makes cleaning off the brake dust and road grime really easy.

Not much except for the Nissan brand name. And FYI that badge is spelled "BADGE". And it is no longer on the car.

I wax my rims...

I never did before but since I bought new rims, I am planning on keeping them in new condition for as long as possible. The wax is good because it doesn't let brake dust get really stuck to the rim, so you can wipe it easily.. I wax them every week or so.

I never used to either, but then I tried starting about 6 months ago, and it makes wiping off the wheels really easy. I only wax the outside of the wheel, not the inside because the Max wheels have alot of grooves on the inside of the wheel. It would suck trying to get all the wax out of there.
